Thanks, Jeff. I found the problem, it wasn't a BO issue at all. It was an IP routing issue. the BO box didn't have connectivity to some of my other internal systems, but it could route out to the Internet.

Wordpress uses sendmail, through a php function. It can be configured to use SMTP instead... Here's a lead:
